Same 2 packages do not need to be in Depends (I'd put curl into Recommends). The man-db does not need to be in Depends. Further Depends (e.g. gcc and all the -dev packages) I can't really evaluate.

I suggest to not override the dh_dwz call, even if it is useless currently. Maybe it becomes useful in the future...well unless dwz breaks things. H. -- Testmail Hi Hilmar, libcurl4 and curl have been removed from BD. curl is out of Depends and I put it in Recommends. man-db was removed from Depends and postinst script was removed. gcc and dev packages are needed for Golf to work, since it's a web service development framework that compiles Golf into C code and thus it needs gcc and dev libs (databases, XML, regex etc) Removed dh_dwz override, it was there because lintian said that compression isn't beneficial, but it doesn't break anything, so it should be fine. These changes are in Golf 517, which is uploaded on Mentors web site (with dput), and are also in Salsa repo. Best, Sergio
